In-situ Chemical Oxidation (ISCO)

Soils contaminated with hydrocarbons (petroleum residues, solvents, pesticides, wood preservatives, etc.) present one of the more difficult challenges for remediation specialists. This is particularly true when the contamination has spread deep below the surface, making excavation costly or impractical.

With ISCO treatment, a combination of oxidizers and activators are introduced to these areas via a well system to chemically oxidize the contaminants into mineralized products such as CO2, salts, and readily biodegradable organic fragments. This treatment method has proven to be less expensive, easier to control and can achieve more rapid results than some other conventional treatment methods.

Equipment Solutions

USP tailors our modular chemical handling systems based on each application and the client's needs. We also work with our clients to determine a solution that works best for them to deliver the required chemical dosages. Standard USP systems include:

Support and Services

USP's consultative approach to problem solving includes performing objective customer "needs" assessments, applications assistance and development of chemical treatment programs tailored to a customer's specific requirements. Our full-service programs successfully implement the safe mobilization and demobilization of chemical storage and dosing equipment systems as well as staging and oversight of chemical inventory and supply. USP's highly trained field service technicians also provide ongoing field and technical support including daily JSA's, chemical blending/mixing, injection assistance and general project management throughout the application. This comprehensive operations and program management approach provides cost effective "hands-off" solutions to our remediation customers.

Rapid Response

USP Technologies is uniquely positioned to rapidly respond to your environmental treatment challenges. USP combines experienced applications and equipment field support with a large inventory of storage systems and pumping modules to respond quickly to time sensitive soil, groundwater and wastewater treatment situations.
